Oxbow National Wildlife Refuge, Harvard, MA 01451

Scroll down to the bottom of this page to see the map in a Google Map embedded KMZ viewer gadget

Another in my continuing series of KMZ maps of places that aren't large or complicated enough to deserve a custom map! The Oxbow National Wildlife Refuge is much larger than the area on the KMZ map - the KMZ map is limited to the section of the refuge with the interpretive trail.

Version History

Version 1.00 (6/6/2013)Initial release using US FWS map dated March 2012.

Area of conservation / recreation land: 279 acres or 0.44 square miles
NOTE: This is my calculation of the extents of the area(s) with publicly accessible trails on the KMZ map. This should be the area available for hiking or other recreation, but it will also include any portion of water bodies, marshes, swamps, etc. within the boundaries of the properties on the KMZ. It would also include inaccessible conservation land within the boundaries, such as a buffer zone of "Do not enter" land around a reservoir.
